The first couple weeks following a diagnosis can be very confusing. There will be many appointments and tests. Once all the info is compiled then an action plan can be made on how best to conquer this disease. Thats why it is very important to go to a cancer center, everyone will be working together on your case.
Please try not to panic. Worrying will not change any test outcome or make you feel better.
Best of luck with everything.
